Some of those hot spots waiting to “tantalize your taste buds,” include Landshark Bar & Grill, Royal India, STK, American Junkie, Havana, Gaslamp BBQ, Pizza on 5th, Lou & Mickey’s, and many more.

After the food tour ends, Johnny WAHOO! Golf Bar will be holding the official afterparty for the event. Tourgoers who attend will get a free drink, an extra bite ticket, and “free play” on their game simulators.
